Rocky Horror Q&A

When did you first see Rocky Horror?
Sometime in the mid 80s after my ex had moved out. I knew some of the regular audience members and cast members from a local dial-up BBS. I got to sit next to regulars and struck up many friendships.

When did you join the cast?
Sometime in the late 90s.

Why did you join the cast?
I love showing off, but mainly at first it was to save money. I was out of work and liked going and just couldn't afford driving there and buying a ticket.

What do you do on cast?
Anything they'll let me? Usually I'm Crim or Dr Scott. I played Magenta on a Rookie Horror Beach Night, played Brad only once so far, did a Trixie that caused brain damage (in maroon bikini briefs, sunglasses, and big cigar). It is such an honor to be allowed to share the stage with so many talented people that I sometimes have to pinch myself; other times I just stroke myself.

Who's sexier, Columbia or Magenta?
I might say Magenta, but Columbia shows her nipples and is human, and I like women like that.

What keeps you going to Rocky every weekend?
For midnights on a Saturday, it's usually the best show in town. It's like a family -- dysfunctional, sure, but at least its aware of it. I have friends, and I can get hugs, and young people don't mistreat me. Also I get to yell obscenities, which is cathartic.

Do you have a love/love or a love/hate relationship with Rocky?
I used to have a love/hate relationship with Rocky, but these days I'm lucky to work up enough energy for a love/mild disdain relationship.

Personal Stuff

What do you do when you're not at Rocky?
I often hang out at the Alamo Drafthouse in hopes of not contracting some disease.

What are a few of your favorite things?
Clean air, clean water, clear sinuses, regular bowels, women

What's your favorite kind of pie?
fur, pecan, chocolate

Anything else random to share?
When I stop at an intersection when it's raining, I turn off the wipers so I can watch the rain hitting the windshield.
